You Only : A Popular Commentary And Study Guide On The Prophecy Of Amos
$19.36How would you react if an uninvited minister came to your congregation and preached an inflammatory message, telling you that your worship and religious practices are blemished and defective? Centuries ago, the prophet Amos stepped across the border of Judah to proclaim words of warning to the northern kingdom of Israel. He called them to return to worship and practices that reflected a correct understanding of who God is and what He was coming to do in Jesus Christ. Amaziah, a high-profile priest of Bethel, was not amused, and he advised Amos to go back to his home and native land. But God had other plans! With a gripping and amazingly contemporary message, the Lord speaks to our hearts as well. As a popular commentary, You Only conveys how God breaks down all forms of self-styled worship so that His children would lean on the saving work of Christ alone.

Pauls Letter To The Romans
$48.99Continuing his series of highly regarded and innovative socio-rhetorical commentaries on the New Testament, Ben Witherington now tackles Romans, perhaps the most profound and difficult book of the New Testament.
Interacting with recent treatments of this Pauline letter and with ancient Christian commentators, Witherington shows that the interpretation of Romans since the Reformation has been far too indebted to Augustinian readings of the text as filtered through Luther, Calvin, and others. Instead, Witherington urges a reading of the text in light of early Jewish theology, the historical situation of Rome, and Paul’s own rhetorical concerns.
Offering a new translation of the Greek text and new insights into Paul and his world, this commentary sheds fresh light on the meaning of Romans for its original audience and for Christian readers today.

“But we have this treasure in clay jars, so that it may be made clear that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us.” (2 Corinthians 4:7)Readers of Second Corinthians are likely to agree that Peter was right about Paul’s letters: “There are some things in them [that are] hard to understand” (2 Peter 3:16). This accessible Bible Study will help to explain some of those hard things, especially by focusing on what is delightful and inspiring about the biblical book. In 2 Corinthians we find promises of a glorious life after death, interesting and thought-provoking figures of speech describing followers of Christ, powerful stewardship messages, an amazing example of humility and proper respect, and much more. By the end of this study it will be easy to see why the folk at Corinth so loved and revered Paul that they collected this letter and others to save for future generations of believers.

We recognize that this is a fulfillment of a dream, borne out of hours of intimate time with our Heavenly Father. Given the timeliness of this book, we could draw a thought from the book of Esther, Chapter 4:13: ‘…for such a time as this.’ However, I think it more appropriate to focus on Esther, Chapter 5:4: ‘If it pleases the king….’ I am quite sure the King is pleased, because destiny and purpose are being fulfilled. We pray that as you read, you will be inspired, uplifted, and strengthened.” -Pastors Ken and Arzella Baker New Covenant Evangelistic Christian Center

Psalms Volume 2 Print On Demand Title
$48.99In this monumental work, his most ambitious undertaking, the late Samuel Terrien brings together a lifetime of scholarship on Psalms, long the wellspring of Jewish spirituality as well as the main hymnal of the Christian church.
The book’s insightful and clearly written introduction treats such subjects as the longevity and ecumenicity of the psalms, their Near Eastern background, the Hebrew text and ancient versions, their music, their strophic structure, their literary genre, their theology, and their relation to the New Testament. In the commentary itself Terrien freshly elucidates the theological significance of these collected poems by putting readers in touch with the formal versatility and religious passion of the psalmists themselves. While Terrien always engages in scientific exegesis before drawing theological conclusions, he is careful to allow full expression to the theological – and, especially, the doxological – voice of these unmatched spiritual songs. The result is a commentary that provides a link between the archaic language of Psalms and the intellectual demands of modern thinking and spirituality.
Throughout his exposition Terrien shows great respect for the scribal testimony of the Jewish tradition, especially the consonants of the Masoretic text. He likewise displays great care in finding the most accurate meaning for Hebrew words of obscure origin. This meticulous work renders a translation of Psalms more reliable than those of Terrien’s predecessors. He also draws on many fruitful gains of structural analysis in discerning the strophic divisions within the Hebrew text. Often he finds unity of composition where earlier critics denied it. And for readers interested in specific aspects of translation and interpretation, Terrien has appended bibliographical lists of modern works on each psalm.

Psalms Volume 1
$76.99In this newest addition to the NIV Application Commentary series, Dr. Gerald H. Wilson examines the first 2 books of the Psalter (Psalms 172), bringing together over 20 years of personal research and teaching. Wilson9s seminal work on the shape and shaping of the Hebrew Psalter has opened a new avenue of psalms research by shifting focus from exclusive attention to individual psalms (through form critical analysis) to include the significance of groups of psalms and the arrangement of the Psalter as a whole. Bridging the distance from the prayer and worship of ancient Israel to the contemporary life of faith, this volume challenges the reader to see familiar psalms with new eyes. Individual interpretation is coupled with insight into the influence of the broader context, and the shaping of the book of Psalms as a whole is explored so that the Psalter emerges as a unified collection with a purpose of its own. When complete, the two-volume set will include original discussions of the shaping of the 5 books of the Psalter and of the collection as a whole, as well as extended consideration of Hebrew poetics, and the theology of the psalms. Scholars and students, clergy and laity will find this volume a stimulating window onto the historical, literary, and spiritual riches of the psalms.

Genesis 12-50 : Old Testament 2
$79.99Genesis 12–50 recounts the history of the patriarchs–Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. From their mentors Paul, Peter, Stephen and the author of the letter to the Hebrews, the early fathers learned to draw out the spritual significance of the patriarchal narrative for Christian believers. The Alexandrian school especially followed Paul’s allegorical use of the story of Sarah and Hagar as they interpreted the Gensis accounts. The Antiochene school eschewed allegorical interpretation but still set about to find moral lessons in the ancient narrative. For all of them the events pointed toward the promises of the age to come, the new age revealed in the resurrection of Jesus.
Among the principal Greek-speaking commentators included within this volume, readers will find Origen, Didymus the Blind, John Chrysostom and Cyril of Alexandria. Among the Latin-speaking interpreters they will find Ambrose of Milan, Augusstine of Hippo, Caesarius of Arles and Bede the Venerable. Ephrem the Syrian is the most commonly cited Syriac-speaking interpreter, while the fifth-century Catena on Genesis provides access to such fathers as Eusebius of Caesarea, Basil the Great, Gregory of Nazianzus, Gregory of Nyssa, Didymus of Alexandria, Epiphanius of Salamis, Irenaeus of Lyons, Eusebius of Emesa, Severian of Gabala and Theodore of Mopsuestia among others.
Varied in texture and nuance, the interpreters cited provide a wealth of ancient wisdom, some appearing here in English translation for the first time, to stimulate the mind and nourish the soul of the church today.

Joshua-Ruth
$40.00Who is God? How does God act in our lives? How are we to act as God’s faithful people? Joshua, Judges, and Ruth represent a chorus of voices reflecting on Israel’s earliest days in its land. The main storyline is straightforward: in Joshua, God empowers an obedient Israel to conquer the Promised Land; in Judges, Israel’s faithlessness and God’s wrath lead to a downward spiral of sin, subjugation, and social disintegration; and Ruth narrates a story of divine blessing worked out through human loyalty. Within the overarching plot, multiple voices wrestle with a range of issues including faithfulness and faithlessness, identity, leadership, and the nature of providence. Pressler explores these themes in their historical context while also presenting their relevance for the church today.
